Vacation in Italy, in the middle of summer, right at Lago di Garda. Camera in hand, wandering through the snickelway (an alley, according to dict.cc), taking pictures of whatever finds your fancy. Good times! A roll of Ektar finds its end after a long journey from Germany to the US, back to Germany and finally exposed to a sunny day in Italy. It survived abuse at many airports, security checkpoints in New York, and finally in the film processor. Scanned, cropped, converted, sifted through, cut down to eight frames, and finally on your screen for your viewing pleasure (or displeasure, whatever floats your boat). Thus, a purpose fulfilled.
